Today the board of directors of SFWA voted to add Lightspeed Magazine to the list of SFWA qualifying markets. Just celebrating its first year online, this imprint of Prime Books is a 2011 Hugo Award nominee.  Edited by John Joseph Adams, the magazine features science-fiction short stories and non-fiction.  They have published SFWA authors such as Nancy Kress, Bruce Sterling, and An Owomoyela.

Because they have met the SFWA minimum requirements since they opened, any stories published are retroactively eligible for SFWA membership qualification.

Congratulations to the entire editorial staff at Lightspeed Magazine and their writers!
